Sheffield Steelers coach happy with first home win of the season
The coach watched his team twice go behind, before they eventually won it in overtime, courtesy of a Jordan Owens strike.
Thompson said his side had shown character to come back.
He'd asked himself how they had been trailing given the number of shots and chances his men had engineered.
